Suppose that Y is a binomial random variable based on n trials and success probability p

Chapter 16, Problem 16.6

(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose that Y is a binomial random variable based on n trials and success probability p (this is the case for the virulent-disease example in Section 16.1). Use the conjugate beta prior with parameters and to derive the posterior distribution of p | y. Compare this posterior with that found in Example 16.1.
